Nightmares and Dreamscapes

Post by Mostess »

So the <A HREF="http://www.scifilm.org/tv/tz/twilightzone5-6.html">evil doll</A> plot is a little old, and best done by the Simpsons (as are most things). And the freaky London suburban subdivision/portal to another (evil of course) dimension was vague and arbitrary.

Next up! William H. Macy plays an <A HREF="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101701/">author whose characters come to life and manipulate him</A>. And after that, we discover that <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_New_ ... ly-induced world peace isn't a great idea</A>.

For some reason, though, I'm hooked. I'm just starved for the single-episode TV horror drama. It's almost like I haven't learned that the old Twilight Zone wasn't even as good as I like to think it was, and now I want it back in all it's imagined glory.
